Guten Tag!
Fancy learning German, brushing up on rusty school-day memories or simply enjoying a good chat in German?
German isn’t just spoken in Germany! Around 100 million people speak it in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, making it the most widely spoken native language in Europe and one of the world’s ten most widely spoken languages.
Whether you have German-speaking friends or family, enjoy visiting German-speaking countries or simply fancy a new challenge, our friendly German language groups could be just what you’re looking for.
We offer two tutor-led courses and one conversation group, catering for different levels of experience.
Not sure which group is right for you? Free taster sessions are available, giving you the chance to meet the tutor or group, find out more and check that the level suits you.
German Beginners
Thursdays, 1–2pm | Members’ homes in the Odiham area
Our Beginners group is ideal if you’ve never studied German before or if your memories of school German are a little hazy. With the support of our tutor, Sonia Eckhartt, you’ll build your vocabulary, learn useful phrases and gradually develop the confidence to understand and speak German.
No previous experience is necessary – and there’s no need to worry about getting everything right first time!
- November: 5, 12, 19, 26
- December: 3, 10 (then we finish for the Christmas season!)
German Intermediate
Schon ein bisschen Deutsch? (Know a little German?)
Wednesdays, fortnightly, 9–10am | Members’ homes in the Odiham area
If you already have some German and want to develop your skills further, our Intermediate group offers the opportunity to improve your vocabulary, grammar, understanding and conversational confidence with Sonia.
This is a tutor-led group for those who have already mastered the basics, rather than complete beginners.
- November: 4, 18
- December: 2, 16
German Conversation
Lust auf einen Plausch? (Fancy a chat?)
Twice a month | Members’ homes in the Odiham area
If you’d prefer a more informal approach, our German Conversation group offers the chance to chat in German with fellow enthusiasts - and a cup of coffee!
This is a small, self-organised group where members practise their German together in a relaxed, friendly setting. You don’t need to be perfect – the idea is to keep using the language and learning from one another.
Members agree the dates and times of their meetings together.
